Spotting

Description:

I know it is some kind of a slug-moth. The caterpillar really looks like a slug :)

Notes:

The picture was taken a few years ago, it was feeding on a goat willow leaves.

Thank you, it really could be, but I'm still looking for the right species :)

I think that it is a crownd slug caterpillar of the Limacodidae family. It is a stinging caterpillar.
